Innovations in Hair Gloss: What’s New?

Hair gloss treatments have revolutionized the way we enhance shine, refine tone, and improve hair health—all without the need for blonding. As technology advances, new innovations in hair gloss products and techniques are making it easier than ever to achieve radiant, polished locks. Kenneth’s offers cutting-edge gloss services and products tailored to meet individual needs, ensuring that every client enjoys long-lasting brilliance and salon-quality results. Let’s explore the latest advancements in hair gloss and how they’re transforming the world of haircare.

What Is Hair Glossing?

Hair glossing is a demi-permanent treatment designed to boost shine, refine tone, and condition hair. Unlike permanent dyes, gloss treatments coat the surface of the hair with a translucent formula that smooths the cuticle, enhances light reflection, and adds hydration. This process fades gradually over 4–6 weeks without harsh regrowth lines, making it ideal for low-maintenance care.

Kenneth’s offers innovative gloss services like Gloss wo Blonding and Color Express, which deliver stunning results tailored to individual needs.

Why Glossing Is Transformative

Hair glossing has become a go-to solution for enhancing hair health and appearance. Here’s why it stands out:

  • Boosts Shine: Gloss treatments create a smooth surface that reflects light beautifully.
  • Refines Tone: Tinted glosses neutralize brassiness or enhance existing shades for vibrant results.
  • Improves Texture: By sealing the cuticle, glossing reduces frizz and adds softness.
  • Gentle on Hair: Free from ammonia and harsh chemicals, gloss treatments are safe for all hair types.
  • Low Commitment: Results fade naturally over time, making it perfect for those who prefer subtle enhancements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Is hair gloss actually good for your hair?

Yes, hair gloss is good for your hair. It adds shine, smooths the cuticle, and can refresh or tone color. Gloss formulas at Kenneth’s are gentle and often include conditioning ingredients.

What is the best hair gloss on the market?

The best hair gloss is a salon-grade, ammonia-free product matched to your hair type and color goals. Kenneth’s stylists use premium glosses chosen for long-lasting shine and color vibrancy.

What is the gloss that hairdressers use?

Hairdressers at Kenneth’s use professional demi-permanent gloss formulas. These products are designed to enhance shine, blend tone, and condition the hair in one step.

Does glossing cover grey hair?

Glossing blends and softens the appearance of grey hair but does not fully cover it. The effect is subtle, giving greys a softer look with added shine.

Do you put hair gloss on wet or dry hair?

Gloss is typically applied to clean, towel-dried hair. Damp hair allows for even application and better absorption of the gloss.

How often should you gloss your hair?

You should gloss your hair every four to six weeks. This maintains shine and keeps color looking fresh between major coloring services.

How do hairdressers get hair so shiny?

Hairdressers achieve shine by using gloss treatments, professional blow-drying techniques, and color-safe styling products. Kenneth’s also recommends regular trimming and hydrating masks to maintain a glossy finish.

Is hair oil or hair gloss better?

Hair gloss and hair oil serve different purposes. Gloss enhances color and shine and lasts for weeks, while oil provides instant softness and moisture but washes out quickly. Kenneth’s stylists can advise which is right based on your hair goals

Do I put hair gloss on my roots?

Gloss can be applied to roots if you want all-over tone and shine. For some looks, your stylist may focus on mid-lengths and ends. Kenneth’s customizes application based on your color needs.

Do I shampoo after hair gloss?

Wait at least 24 hours before shampooing at home after a gloss. This lets the gloss set fully and ensures maximum shine and longevity. At Kenneth’s, your hair is only rinsed and conditioned after the gloss treatment.
